To know the number of valence electrons you must know the number of electrons in the outer shell .. In the periodic table there are 8 groups (which are the vertical columns) .. ignore the yellow ones for now which are the transition metals .. the group number is the number of electrons in the most outer shell of an atom .. so for example lithium and sodium are in group 1 so they have only 1 electron in their outer shell .. the valence electrons are the ones an atom looses or gains during a chemical reaction (atoms try to be stable by having 8 electrons in their outer most shell) .. for example atoms in group 1 have 1 electron in their outer shell that they want to loose so the valency is 1 .. In group 5 they need to become 8 so they gain 3 electrons so the valency is 3

The density of table salt is 2.16 g/cm3. Detail the conversion into units of pounds per liter, and provide the density in lb/L.
Leona [35]

Answer:

density = 4.763pounds per liter

Explanation:

1g/cm³ = 2.205pounds per liter

2.16g/cm³ = (unknown)pounds per liter

(unknown)pounds per liter = 2.205 x 2.16 = 4.763

density = 4.763pounds per liter

What term describes the process of lowering the boiling point of a hydrocarbon by exposing it to different environmental treatme
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

Cracking.

Explanation:

A chemical reaction can be defined as a reaction in which two or more atoms of a chemical element react to form a chemical compound. An example of a chemical reaction involving hydrocarbons is cracking.

Hydrocarbon can be defined as an organic compound that comprises of hydrogen and carbon only.

In Organic chemistry, cracking refers to the process of lowering the boiling point of a heavy, complex or long-chain hydrocarbon such as kerogens by exposing it to different environmental treatments such as hydrogen enriched catalysts, pressure or high temperatures, in order to produce smaller, lighter and more useful molecules (alkanes and alkenes) such as gasoline, diesel fuel, etc.

You have collected a tissue specimen that you would like to preserve by freeze drying. To ensure the integrity of the specimen,
Reika [66]

Answer:

The maximum pressure is 612.2 Pa

Explanation:

The pressure of the ice (P1) = 624 Pa

The temperature of the ice = 273.16 K

The maximum temperature the specimen = - 5 oC

                                                                     = -5 + 273 = 268K

The maximum Pressure the freeze drying can be will be (P2) = ?

Using Pressure law, which shows the relationship between pressure and temperature.

                        P1 / T1 = P2 / T2

                       P2 T1 = P1 T2

                       P2 = P1 T2 / T1

                       P2 = 624 × 268 / 273.16

                       P2 = 612.2 Pa

The maximum pressure at which drying can be carried out is 612.2 Pa
